Why is it so ridiculous ?
No team should be relying on one player as we have basically since the ill fated Jan 2011 window.
We should not have ......only once in many years .......had just one player who has scored over 20 goals in a season. Torres.
Very valid argument and if Suarez had been injured / suspended you would be probably the first to moan about depending on one player and a treacherous league position hovering above the relegation zone.
A ridiculous predicament of skating on very thin ice to be in ..................which lets hope will seriously be addressed tomorrow.
Regrettably if Mr R is just relying on Sturridge .....it aint going to happen.
We need 4th place minimum in May.
It's ridiculous because it's such a 'what if' scenario. Take out the top scorer from any team and you will see a drop, it's logical. Everyone knows we're light up top, but the whole 'if we didn't have his goals, we would be here' argument holds no water with me, because if you're doing that, you firstly should take out the top scorer from EVERY team and see how the league looks.
And yes I have moaned about how we only have 1 striker (who hasn't) but we all know it's an issue, so it's not as if the point is being enforced by raising this argument. It's just confirming what we know. We need another striker.
I think Sturridge could surprise a few, for the first time in his career, he should be getting a decent run in the team and I can see him getting us about 10 goals maybe, before the season ends.
